Liam Neeson Will Star in Another New Action Thriller Called THE MINUTEMAN
Liam Neeson seems to be showing no signs of slowing down as an action star. It’s pretty incredible to see what his career has become. For the most part I love the action films that he’s made over the years. The actor has now signed on to a new action thriller called The Minuteman.
The movie is set to be directed by Robert Lorenz (Trouble With the Curve), who has also collaborated with Clint Eastwood as a producer on the three Oscar nominated films- American Sniper, Letters From Iwo Jima and Mystic River.
The Minuteman, “tells a fast-paced story of a retired Vietnam veteran who finds himself responsible for the life of a young boy who is being hunted by a cartel, shades of the protector character Neeson nailed in his threeTaken films.”
Voltage CEO Jonathan Deckter had this to say in a statement:
“Fans love to see Liam play the highly skilled protector, a role he does better than anyone else as seen in the Taken film series, and Robert has helped bring some of the most celebrated films about an everyman’s journey to becoming a hero to the big screen. This powerful combination gives The Minuteman a critical edge in the international marketplace. We’re thrilled to partner with Zero Gravity’s Tai and Mark and Sculptor’s Warren and Eric to share this visceral story with audiences around the world.”
Neeson obviously enjoys starring in these films, so he’ll be right at home with this next one. Are you excited to see Neeson back in action again in this upcoming movie?
